This Batman is still by far the best looking figure I have seen in anyone's collection... Its a shame it has to go for such high prices and a lot of them have the oil issue... A figure of this quality should be in every collector's home

I really want a DX2 figure badly, but I'm so hesitant to entertain the price these are going for when there's such a high % of issues with it.
I'd just hold off until TDKR. He wears the same suit for a portion, if not the whole, movie so it's a no-brainer HT will release another version of it.

If this movie is like every single Batman movie before it, the Batman costume will be changed and tweaked for merchandising reasons if not story purposes.
the sonar light up eyes device was something that was essentially destroyed at the end of Dark Knight, so I doubt we'd see that feature on a future toy.
Well, there have been 3-4 four major scenes between Pittsburgh and LA so far and it's been the same exact suit from TDK. I've seen it in pics and in person, it's literally the same.
On the sets in Pittsburgh I heard rumors that there would be a new suit in Rises, along with a Batmobile and "Batwing" (this has been confirmed and revealed) but I'm beginning to doubt the info of the suit. I really don't think there's going to be a new one. Odd too because every Batman sequel film to date has had a new costume or too. Way to break a tradition!
Good point. The sticky bomb gun and cape back pack might be exclusive to the TDK figure as well.
I'd still bet on a new costume. Even with as much pull as Nolan now has with the studio, there are too many toy companies involved (Mattel, DC Direct, Hot Toys) for them not to tweak the suit a bit.

The only tweaks they could possibly do would be to make the TDK suit look more accurate. They did that already with the DX02 (even though it leaked like a siv). If they re-release it, it'll be like the Toyfare Exclusive Bruce Wayne where it's just a straight-up reuse of the rubber suit though, hopefully, sans leaks.
I think you misunderstood my post. I meant that the movie team will probably tweak the bat-costume for the new movie. I don't think the Hot Toys Dark Knight version could be made much more accurate, as it's pretty spot on.
Abs are only shiny when it leaks, that's a sign, they gloss over and darken.
